Healthy Snacks in the Teachers' Lounge

By:

Our CATCH (Coordinated Approach to Children's Health) committee members want to

encourage our staff members to choose healthier snacks to eat. We do have 2 vending machines in our teachers lounge that sell chips, cookies, candy, soda and water. Our committee is rethinking what is sold in the machines and are talking to the companies involved to see if we can offer healthier choices for our faculty and staff. We want to set a good example for our students and be healthier in the long run.

In the meantime, several times a month, teachers will find assorted trays of fresh fruits, vegetables, hummus, cheeses and healthy crackers to satisfy that afternoon craving for a snack. This will be a healthier alternative to vending machine offerings.
